The topic is "Captured Helferinnen used as sex slaves?", not the rapes in general or atrocities committed during the battle for Berlin so please stay on topic.

General observations on the subject should be posted on one of these threads, after the forum and google searches are completed.

Helpful hint: I've tried to accumulate the most often discussed subjects in this section on two research announcement threads, "Allied war crimes FAQs" at

You can save yourself some time by looking there first.

Marcus, no disrespect, but this thread has become one about the Russian rapes. And I'd like to see Topspeed's source(s) for his comment. (Unfortunately?) I'm becoming quite familiar with the sources on the Russian rapes, and I've never seen this one.

Well it was a TV-document. It is also a fact not a rumour. I don't think in chaos of Berlin all attrocities were well documented.
Really let's stay in topic.

As this thread continues away from the original topic despite requests from myself and David, it is now closed.

Those of you who want to discuss the rapes committed by the Red Army, please continue one of the threads listed by David above.
